Trattoria romana, typical cuisine from Rome. Must make a reservation well in advance. Usually they have 2 shifts 19-21 and 21-23. The latest one is the best because you can stay longer, while the first shift they ask you to leave in order to prepare for next shift.

Opens only for midday, quite hard to reach from city center, but... THE BEST ITALIAN STREET FOOD EVER! The atmosphere is Amazing: the chef and all staff are so passionate about what they do, they serve real healty food and redescover the old recipes from our grandparents. I love this place.

Pizza served by slice. Different from the usual, high crust, super tasty. Spontini is a legend in Milano, must-try!
The place is like a fast food, so not ideal for a quite romantic dinner, but perfect for a quick lunch on the go.

Peruvian fusion cuisine, very elegant. Quite pricy but Worth it. If you can, get a spot at the super narrow bar counter, you will see the chef at work, quite Amazing! Drink Piscos and eat ceviche in many different variations. Don't miss the bathroom, you will understand why.

Sightseeing
Try to go to "Terrazze del Duomo", from the top of the Cathedral, in clear days, you can have a great view of the City. In cloudy days is super nice too: you can see the famous pinnacles from very close, Amazing works of art!

Arts & Culture
Historical building, free access during opening hours of class (mon/fri H:8/20 more or less). Beautiful architecture, peacefull cloisters, I suggest you to inquire why it was built, you will be amazed bythe modern side of the ancient Milano.
Ca' Granda
7 Via Festa del PerdonoHistorical building, free access during opening hours of class (mon/fri H:8/20 more or less). Beautiful architecture, peacefull cloisters, I suggest you to inquire why it was built, you will be amazed bythe modern side of the ancient Milano.
You have the occasion to visit one of the most avantgarde private houses of Milano. Architecture is Amazing, the design is still so actual. Right in the city center, but so peacefull. I love to spend my time in the garden of the Villa, in spring birds are singing and in summer it's a fresh place to relax a while.
They also have a nice Caffetteria that you can have access to without paying the ticket to visit the Villa.
Full of events (markets, exhibitions etc), sometimes it is closed due to private events (check with them before going).

Fancy bars, very lively during the weekend. From happy hour to late night (around 2AM bars and pubs close). Pay attention: the nice part of Corso Sempione goes from Arco della Pace (behind Sempione Park) to the first half kilometer of the Street.

Another night-life area of Milano. You will find a few discos (Hollywood, Toqueville among the most famous ones) and many bars for a drink. My most favorite is LoolaPaloosa, a disco pub with a nice vibe.
